Multiphoton microscopy effectively images rabbit skin structures in detail without staining and shows differences from human skin.
research The Hair Follicle Stem Cell as the Paradigm Multipotent Adult Stem Cell
Hair follicle stem cells can turn into many cell types and may help repair nerve damage and have other medical uses.
research The genetic basis of dermatophytosis skin infection susceptibility
Genetic factors, skin barrier, immune function, and obesity influence risk of fungal skin infections.
research Recovery and protection of photo‐damaged hairs with keratin‐encapsulated cationic liposomes
Keratin-encapsulated liposomes effectively repair and protect UV-damaged hair.
research Activation of the integrated stress response in human hair follicles
Blocking the Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier causes stress in hair follicles, which can be reduced by an ISR inhibitor.
